model net +0.29 ← MVRV-Z +0.42·5%, STH/LTH Realized -0.00·3%

Price is soft (-31% below ATH), but smart money is accumulating beneath it — long-term holders net-flat (+88,168 net over 30d), coins leaving exchanges (+3,193 BTC/day net withdrawal), model on-chain net +0.29. Coins are moving to strong hands: the transfer that clusters near cycle lows. It doesn't call the low, and it's not the model's buy signal yet — it's the footprint that tends to precede one.

Denies:
The full model composite is -0.12 → HOLD BTC (EXPANSION, 80% confidence) — its structural signals (valuation, regime, mining, macro) lean defensive. But of the three near-term confirmation lenses shown here (a subset of the model), 2 read constructive and 1 cautionary: the near-term picture is also firming. Deep value, but the model has not yet called the turn.
